| Quality flag(s) | Partial factor The source (except for the 2019 dataset) reports emission factors in CO2 only and does not include the impact of other GHGs. Erroneous calculation The AIB does publish a residual factor of zero for Austria but this should not be used for calculations as it would give incorrect results. The Total Supplier Mix factor is the next best available option in the GHG Protocol market-based hierarchy of factors. |
